;;; Commentary:

;; This package implements filling of messages sent and received.  Use
;; `erc-fill-mode' to switch it on.  Customize `erc-fill-function' to
;; change the style.

(require 'erc)
(require 'erc-stamp); for the timestamp stuff

These two styles are implemented using `erc-fill-variable' and
`erc-fill-static'.  You can, of course, define your own filling
function.  Narrowing to the region in question is in effect while your
function is called."
